NOVEMBER - 20216GOVERNMENT CIO OUTLOOKEDITORIALBringing About Advanced Public Safety Measures Since last year, the world has changed drastically for all of us, including government organizations. And nowhere has this stress-test of public services been felt more keenly than in public safety agencies. By and large, COVID-19 has changed the nature of the threat faced, elevating the need to support and protect the workforce. The challenges also have gone beyond specific COVID-19-related tasks. Public safety agencies have had to address the increasing cyber threat and respond to other natural disasters, while building and maintaining community trust. With this, public safety and policing agencies have found themselves adjusting and adapting to new technological innovations.Now more than halfway through 2021, we can see this trend going into overdrive mode. In public safety, AI is being used as an assistive tool to support the continual, autonomous assessment that is more efficient, effective, and scalable than manual monitoring of video, alarms, and common operating pictures alone. With assistive AI, agencies can detect complex emergencies faster, and provide staff with real-time actionable insights that enable them to make timelier and better-informed decisions. Alongside AI, there is also an increased focus on cloud technology. In the wake of the big data explosion, both AI and cloud technology are becoming key to harnessing the data deluge and take proactive measures in safeguarding citizens' well-being. And as more and more public safety agencies are implementing these advanced technology tools and solutions, we believe the whole industry will see the benefits, recognize the value, and soon strive to keep pace.In this edition of Govt CIO Outlook, we bring you the story of some of the most promising public safety solution providers that deliver the best outcomes for their clients.
